When I had you
I treated you bad
And wrong my dear
And girl since,
Since you been away
Dontcha know
I sit around
with my head hangin' down
And I wonder

Ever made you cry

Come on and take it girl

With my head hangin down
And I wonder

does anyone remember the beginning?
the beginning of archie.
has anyone stuck around archie that long since
back when he simply called himself "ponyarchie"
when he then deleted that acct because people criticized him(or because he was hacked im not too sure anymore).
back since he came back as "archievmusic" and created many of my still favorite songs
back when he had 70k likes on facebook
but was then hacked (or screwed over) by his manager
back when he came back yet again as "archiemusicofficial"(i think, it was definitly those 3 words in some order)
back when he was hacked yet again and reemerged as realarchiemusic
now forgive me as some of these events might be out of order
however, i know they happened because i was there
and im proud to have stood by him and support him though out what at least i would consider one of the most difficult times in a persons life that i have ever seen and im glad hes still here making music, im glad that he hasnt given up on his dream (im mean it seems like hes gone through hell and back but eh, maybe im just exaggerating)
it gives me some hope
so thank you archie
